For the record, Oracle support finally came up with a solution, but it
raises still more questions. The box had two Oracle homes on it, one
for a single 10g datbase and one for the 10g oem agent. In the PATH
environment variable, the agent home preceeded the db home. Flipping
that -- putting the db home first -- solved the problem and allowed
'c:\rman / target' to connect as it is supposed to. Of course, that
raises the question of why path ordering should matter in this
particular issue ....
